Abstract

The main result of this paper gives an interpretation of Milnor's $\bar \mu$- invariants of a link in terms of Massey products in the complement of the link. The approach presented here can be used to give topological proofs of results about the $\bar \mu$-invariants obtained by Milnor using different methods.
